Jeffrey Stephen "Bebo" Norman (born May 29, 1973) is a contemporary Christian musician from Columbus, Georgia. His most successful album to date is "Myself When I Am Real", which included hit songs "Great Light of the World" and "Falling Down". Other popular songs by Norman include "Disappear", "Nothing Without You", "I Will Lift My Eyes", and "Borrow Mine". He initially gained popularity when touring with another Christian band, Caedmon's Call. Norman's fans call themselves Simpletons.

Norman was originally involved in Young Life Ministries and gained a considerable fan base by performing at the summer camps there. This has drawn parallels to musician Matt Wertz and producer Ed Cash (Chris Tomlin, Amy Grant), both who gained fame through their involvement with Young Life. Upon releasing "Big Blue Sky", his third album, Norman included a slip asking for donations to the organization. His song "Walk Down This Mountain" is about an experience at Young Life's Wilderness Ranch.Fact|date=June 2008

Norman released "Between the Dreaming and the Coming True" in September 2006. The tour in support of this album featured Christian music newcomers Aaron Shust and Brandon Heath. Norman is a graduate of Presbyterian College in Clinton, South Carolina.

His song, "To Find My Way To You" was used on various promos for the CBS sitcom, "The Class". [ [http://www.hearitfirst.com/newsTour/default.aspx?news_id=500165 Bebo Norman Moves to the Head of the Class] ]
